Our Irish expert expects a late surge from handicap chaser with strong form

Kildorrery
2.25 Thurles
1pt win

Denis O'Regan remains one of the best hold-up jockeys in the business and can deliver Kildorrery to an overdue win on his second ride on the Ted Walsh-trained gelding.

O'Regan got acquainted with the seven-year-old in the competitive Dan & Joan Moore Memorial Handicap Chase at Fairyhouse last month, in which he made late headway to finish fourth after the race had boiled down to a match between Charlie Stout and Avenir D'Une Vie.
